The Wendy Woo Band

About: Wendy Woo

As Colorado’s music scene has exploded over
the past few years, one of its mainstays has been Wendy Woo. Her energetic
personality, musical skills, and spirited songwriting have made her a media and
fan favorite and have taken her to venues across the country including the Fox
Theater and Red Rocks in Colorado, the Bitter End and the Living Room in New
York, the Hotel Cafe in Los Angles, the Bluebird Café in Nashville, Sweetwater
in Mill Valley, and Eddie’s Attic in Decatur, Georgia.

Anticipating the rise of the independent
artist, Woo formed her own corporation, Woo Music. Through that she runs her
own record label (eight albums), publishing company, booking agency, and
management company.

Woo was born in New York and moved to
Boulder as a toddler when her parents Jane, an artist, and Bataan, a poet,
became founding faculty members of Naropa University. The Faigao home was a
gathering spot for such literary icons as Beat poet Allen Ginsberg, Merry Prankster
Ken Kesey, and 1960s chronicler Norman Mailer.

Music:

Woo has released eight CDs, displaying a
wide variety of styles. Angels in the Crowd (1997) is a collection of mellow
jazz and folk-inspired ballads. Wide Awake and Dreaming (1999) is a full band
production with funk and jazz rhythms. Ecolalia (2000) features Woo’s songs and
acoustic guitar interwoven with her father’s poetry. Gonna Wear Red (2002) is a
tightly produced series of rock tunes with touches of funk, blues, and folk.
Walking the Skyline (2004) has songs in three genres: intimate solo acoustic;
expansive upbeat pop/folk; and full band funk. Angels Laughing (2005) is a live
solo acoustic album. Luxury (2007) is a mix of power pop, arena rock, and even
some electronica influences.
Saving Grace (2009) is an album of acoustic duets with Roch Hoch
